August 3: Forrest Island to Secret Cove

Today started a little earlier than the previous few days. JuLee Sievers told everyone that wanted to go could meet her at the boathouse at 8 am and do a hike/walk around the island. She took us all around the 82 acre island on paths that Jim had made. After walking all the way around the island and going down to a couple of the beaches we went back to the boat for a little while before brunch. Jim and JuLee set out another great spread for brunch with the usual and not so usual suspects. We had some toast, bacon, fruit, fruit cobblers, leg of lamb and prime rib. Once we had all stuffed ourselves silly we all talked for a while and my dad did the dishes again.

After we had said our goodbyes to everyone and all the boats had left the Sievers’ dock we started off for Secret Cove, which is where we would anchor for the night. It was a nice relaxing trip with a beautiful sunset to end the day with. After we had a dinner of leftover prime rib and lamb sandwiches we watched Edge of Darkness with Mel Gibson and then went to bed.
